Target recliners chair can be a practical addition to a study or a living room, where a lot of rest and napping occurs. A reclining chair can be both a chair and a place to be completely down, creating more space in other pieces of furniture. Before placing a recliner in a room, consider the elements of the living room configuration and the space needed for a fully open recliner.

Make sure that the chair is accessed from the door of the room in which you want to place it. Interior doors extend from 30 to 36 inches wide, while reclining chairs are typically at least 36 inches wide. Measure both the door and the recliner before trying to put it in a room, to make sure it will fit. Next, place the target recliners in the space designated for it. This can be complicated due to the typical circumference of a recliner. Make sure the chair does not overwhelm the room where you will place it.

Target recliners are intended to recline completely. This means that it takes a lot of space behind the chair so you can recline as far back as you understand it. Make sure that a coffee table or a corner of the bed will not inhibit the extension of the footrest of the recliner. Some recliners need only about 6 inches of extra space, while others need more than a foot behind them to fit. The same goes for the front, with some needing less than a foot of space, while others need more than 2 feet.
